What separation technique involves using different boiling points?

Distillation. By applying heat to the mixture it will boil, but the different liquids within the mixture will boil or vapourise at different temperatures. This means that the different vapours can be drawn off at different stages and then condensed back into liquid form.
One example of where this is used on an industrial scale is at a oil refinery. The crude oil extracted from oil fields is heated in large distillation towers. These then separate out different products from heavy oil (higher boiling point), through to petrol (medium boiling point) to propane (low boiling point).

When to liquids in a mixture have different boiling points they can be separated by?
Two liquids in a mixture with different boiling points can be separated by distillation.
How are you going to purify the crude oil and what method is used to separate the mixtures of oil?
Oil refineries use a technique known as fractional distillation, which involves separating different components of crude oil based on their different boiling points.
What technique could be used to separate water and ethanol?
Water and Ethanol have different boiling points of 100 and 78 degree celcius.Therefore the best technique to be used for its separation is simple distillation.When this ids done, alcohol distils over at 78degrees leaving water behind thus the mixture has been separated.
How is distillation used to separate a mixture of liquids of different boiling points?
The process of separation is called distillation.
The boiling point of both the liquids should be known during separation by fractional distillation method.why?
Separation by distillation is based on the differences between boiling points.

Which separation technique will you apply to separate 2 soluble liquids and separate iron pins from sand?
Distillation for the two soluble liquids (which seperates them by their boiling point) and magnetism for the separation of iron pins and sand.
What property of substance does distillation used as basis for separation of components of a mixture?

What are 2 physical properties of ethyl alcohol and water to separate them?
Separation is possible by distillation because boiling points are different.
How are different hydrocarbons separated by fractional distillation at an oil refinery?
Separation is based on the differences between boiling points.

Explain fractional distillation and how it is used in refining oil?
Fractional distillation is a technique used to separate liquids with different boiling points. It is used in refining oil, whereby different types of oils are separated according to their different boiling points.

Separation by distillation is based on the differences between boiling points.
What does distillation?
Distillation is the separation of two substances by boiling.
